The Monday Poll: Best Last Lines

Published February 24, 2014

Good morning, Hub readers!

Last week, in honor of Presidents’ Day, we asked you to choose the YA lit character you’d vote into the White House. The results just go to show that smart girls rule: 28% of you would vote E. Lockhart’s Frankie Landau-Banks for president, and 26% chose Suzanne Collin’s Katniss Everdeen as their ideal presidential candidate. Good looks and charisma also count for something, as Magnus Bane from Cassandra Clare’s books came in third with 14% of your vote. You can see detailed results for all of our previous polls in the Polls Archive. Thanks to all of you who voted!

This week, we’re revisiting a topic we polled you about a long, long time ago in the bygone days of 2011: the best last lines in YA fiction. Since this is an update of a previous poll, we’re sticking with books published after that poll was issued. Vote below, or leave your suggestions in the comments!
